The Buzz

Lea Michele was out and about promoting the highly anticipated Glee-meets-American Horror Story series Scream Queens on September 22, looking sexy yet chic in a plunging halter dress by Bec & Bridge.

Pulled from the Australian label’s Resort 2015 collection, Lea picked a revealing orange-leather midi to show off her bangin’ figure. The warm tone of the dress worked perfectly with Lea’s chocolate locks and bronzed skin, and the fine-strap heels were a great finishing touch.

With so much skin on display and no prints to be found anywhere, a little part of us was hoping Lea could’ve amped up the accessories a little more. That being said, she’s got so much more fashion know-how going on than her borderline-psychopath Scream Queens character, Hester, so we can’t complain too much.

Cara Delevingne is sick and tired of the paparazzi hounding her at every turn. The model-turned-actress took to Twitter to vent about the perils of fame thanks to the harassment she faces at the hands of thirsty shutterbugs, looking for a payout over candids of the model.

The paparazzi only get worse! I am not complaining but I just find it sad that I can’t live in my own city because for that reason

Delevingne mentions she finds it difficult to live her life in her own city because of the paparazzi and issued a warning to ones that will be present during Milan Fashion Week. “I only cover my face when you are rude to me, please do not make me feel like a zoo animal,” she tweeted. (more…)

We loved attending our favourite designers’ shows during London Fashion Week Spring 2016, but one of the highlights from this season was the launch party for brand new shoe label JF London. What girl wouldn’t love a dedicated shoe party, right?

Taking place at London’s swanky Haymarket Hotel, the swimming pool was brought to life with floating garlands and candles, drinks flowed as Lion Babe performed and fashion blogger Bip Ling subsequently hit the decks. Handmade in Italy, JF London is all about making a statement with your footwear with a vibrant collection for both men and women. The brand is set to make your shoes the focal point of any outfit thanks to an eye-catching palette of hot pinks, vivid blues and a scattering of neon hues. (more…)

Victoria’s Secret knows sexy – or at least, what is considered sexy by the mainstream powers-that-be. To further assert themselves as arbiters of what is desirable in our culture, the lingerie giant has released a list of “What Is Sexy?” to pay homage to those celebrities it believes have features and assets worthy of the title.

On the list we have Chrissy Teigen with sexiest hair, Beyoncé with the sexiest bikini body, Rachel McAdams for sexiest actress and Taylor Swift for sexiest legs, which doesn’t surprise us as hers are about a mile long.

But possibly the most esteemed title was bestowed on Rihanna, who was named “forever sexy” by the lingerie retailer, and we’d have to agree. Between her saucy Instagram posts, badass attitude and penchant for posing in next to nothing (sometimes nothing at all), Riri will always ooze sex appeal.

We’ve been keeping a very close eye on Maxim magazine since Kate Lanphear took over as editor-in-chief back in 2014. Now settling in nicely to the position a year later, Lanphear has tapped the likes of Candice Swanepoel and Emily DiDonato to front previous issues and now Maxim‘s October edition serves up Isabeli Fontana. Photographed by Gilles Bensimon and giving us all sorts of flashbacks to the 90s, Isabeli makes for one heck of a cover subject.

It’s safe to say we’re head over heels. “Wow, they finally have a classy cover and Isabeli looks super sexy and beautiful here!” raved justaguy.

Also full of praise was marsnoop2, crediting, “Maxim is absolutely incredible nowadays. The EIC took a crappy men’s magazine (although I admit I liked some of their early 2000s work) and just gave it a whole new life and the imagery they produce rivals a lot of top fashion magazines.”

“Such a nice shot, glad to see Gilles continue to work for this magazine!” Benn98 added.

AlonsoJonathan was quick to share his enthusiasm too: “What a stunning image of Isabeli. She looks GORGEOUS!”

“The only thing I dislike about Isabeli nowadays is how incredibly fake her fake boobs look. I expected them to be front and center on the cover when I first opened this thread. Glad to see the that’s not really the case, and that the styling is actually very natural, pretty and classy. The editorial is great, too. Probably the best she’s looked since 2003!” declared Psylocke.
